Early afternoon. You are just back from
meeting Maryann at Great Clips and feel better with a haircut and neatly
trimmed beard. She smiled as usual and said, "It's looking a little
straggly Richard, but I can take care of it."- Amorella
1329 hours. I replied
laughingly, "I know, and I take advantage of it [your talents]."
Carol is drying her hair and earlier, most
of the morning, you had some serious arthritic pain in your left hip. You were
about to take a pill when Carol suggested a hot bath with bubbles. You took her
advice and it worked. - Amorella
1335 hours. I read an article by Eugene
Robinson in The Enquirer this morning. It bothers me because Robinson is
pointing out the propaganda techniques of the upcoming Republican President and
his band of close cohorts and how they differ from the mainstream Republican
party. I shake my head, sometimes literally, and flash to all those years of
teaching George Orwell's Animal Farm and 1984. I wonder why more
people are not paying attention. The man is not even in office and many don't
seem to care. I am concerned for our
Republic. Every once in a while this sort of bailiwick wells up. I focused on
teaching the "Deception of Propaganda" to my freshman, sophomores,
juniors and even to seniors sometimes. I fit it in with a modified logic
lecture depending on the class age/background. I hope some of them remember. I
even bring the books up on Facebook once or twice a year, usually with a not so
subtle quotation from Orwell.
Nothing
more to say on the subject, boy? - Amorella
1357 hours. No.
You
had a late lunch at Piada Street Italian, then to Graeter's and on to the
bookstore. Now you are waiting for Carol at the community center. - Amorella
1649 hours. At Barnes and
Noble I put a quote defining 'doublespeak' on my FB page and feel the better for it. Otherwise, I am ready to work on "Adopt and Adapt".
Below is what you have as the Introduction
to Encounters in Mind. Let's put this on the work document at Ariel 18. -

Encounters
in Mind [2012 - 2016]
This
blog was imagined and created on 15 August 2009. As of 17 August 2012 the plan
for books four, five and six was scuttled. The books are being written into a
major revision of the original Merlyn trilogy. The title is "Great
Merlyn's Ghost". The books focus on what Richard and I, the Amorella,
consider to be an intellectual engagement -- a modern trilogy encapsulated by
an evolving human heartansoulanmind.

1703 hours. I
have no thought on this because I don't know how to define this new project.
Return to the A and A doc. - Amorella
After a makeshift supper, NBC News, and
last night's new PBS "Sherlock" it is time to drop the finalizing
copy of the new Intro to EiM. Below is the new Intro to this blog. - Amorella

This notebook blog, created on 15 August 2009 is reassigned as of 1 January 2017 to show the development of a simpler fiction demonstrating the human spirit at work in a book titled, Soki's Choice instead of continuing with GMG.2 at this time. Amorella, imaginary or not, is a spiritual essence within. I cannot type this work without her patience, friendship, skill and her gathering the information from my unconsciousness. She understands my humanity better than I can as a living being. - rho
